We recommend following the label's recommended dose, or cutting the dose by half for a softer effect that will be less likely to burn the roots.

A western or southern window would work, as long as a curtain or blind prevents direct light from touching the foliage. This plant also performs well without any bright indirect light, and just fluorescent light. These make great office plants since they are tolerant of fluorescent lights.

Regular potting mix or potting mix with sand or fir bark mixed in works well for plants potted in containers. Maranta Prayer Plant likes to be root bound so wait until the roots are showing at the drainage sites before potting up.

The foliage will fade or burn if exposed to excessive light. Maranta or Lemon Lime Prayer Plant does especially well in low-light areas. The unique foliage is elliptic & oval-like. It is a part of the Marantaceae family.

A happy Lemon Lime Prayer Plant is a perfect subject for a time-lapse and that is the best way to see all the different ways the leaves like to move. If the leaves stop moving regularly, it might mean your plant is not happy. Are you using filtered water? If not, try switching to filtered to see if it perks up and moves throughout the day again. Also check for pests or root rot, as these can contribute to your Prayer Plant shutting down.
